When migrating a domain with invtsc CPU feature enabled, the TSC
frequency of the destination host must match the frequency used when the
domain was started on the source host or the destination host has to
support TSC scaling.

If the frequencies do not match and the destination host does not
support TSC scaling, QEMU will fail to set the right TSC frequency when
starting vCPUs on the destination and thus migration will fail. However,
this is quite late since both host might have spent significant time
transferring memory and perhaps even storage data.

By adding the check to libvirt we can let migration fail before any data
starts to be sent over. If for some reason libvirt is unable to detect
the host's TSC frequency or scaling support, we'll just let QEMU try and
the migration will either succeed or fail later.

Luckily, we mandate TSC frequency to be explicitly set in the domain XML
to even allow migration of domains with invtsc. We can just check
whether the requested frequency is compatible with the current host
before starting QEMU.

When the host CPU supports invariant TSC the host CPU definition created
by virCPUx86GetHost will contain (unless probing fails for some reason)
addition TSC related data.

On a KVM x86_64 host which supports invariant TSC this function can be
used to detect the TSC frequency and the availability of TSC scaling.

The magic MSR numbers required to check if VMX scaling is supported on
the host are documented in Volume 3 of the Intel® 64 and IA-32
Architectures Software Developer’s Manual.

The qemuTestParseCapabilitiesArch call would eventually lead to the host
CPU being probed via virCPUGetHost. Let's divert this to a mocked
version already used by the qemuxml2argvtest.

The function is renamed as virQEMUCapsProbeHostCPU and it does not get
the list of allowed CPU models from qemuCaps anymore. This is
responsibility is moved to the caller. The result is just a very thin
wrapper around virCPUGetHost mostly required mocking in tests.

The generic function is used in place of a direct call to virCPUGetHost
in virQEMUCapsInitHostCPUModel to make sure tests don't accidentally
probe host CPU.

There's nothing x86 specific about this function. Rename the
function so that it has DMI suffix which enables it to be reused
on different arches (as using X86 from say ARM would look
suspicious).

All current IOMMU features are specific to Intel IOMMU, so
understandably we check for the corresponding capabilities
inside the Intel-specific switch() branch; however, we want
to make sure SMMUv3 IOMMU users get an error if they try to
enable any of those features in their guest, and performing
the capability checks unconditionally is both the easiest
way to achieve that, as well as the one least likely to
result in us inadvertently letting users enable some new
Intel-specific IOMMU feature for ARM guests later on.
